"Since the North East India consists of seven States and each State is enriched
with its unique cultural heritage an attempt is made in the publication to enlist its
valued past, historical edifices, ethnic tradition, social, political, cultural and
religious beliefs. There are a number of discoveries made in the arachaeological
investigations recently which have been incorporated in the book. Besides, significant
restoration and conservation works revealing hidden ruins of the historical monuments of
A. S. I. and State Archaeology Departments of respective State have been enlisted.

Most of the present states were earlier part of Undivided Assam. Therefore, an academic
endeavour is made here to delve into their cultural history separately. Demarcation of new
boundaries made the people of these States more conscious of their valued past and it was
a matter of pride for these people to eulogise their rich cultural heritage which is no
way diminutive from any other region of pan India at all.

Needless to say that archaeology of North East India is very important as the region
adjoins with South and South East Asian countries including Bangladesh, Myanmar, Bhutan,
China and Thailand, Migration of people or diffusion of cultures from these countries in
prehistoric times and later can not be ruled out and its impact has led the emergence of
specific traits prevailing in the region found to be unknown in other parts of the
country."
